Happy Friday! Last night I went to a fabulous event hosted by the Dallas Blogger Collective at Taco Diner. (PS. – the world-famous Mambo Taxi is a must-have) As a new(ish) blogger, this was my first event with the Dallas Blogger Collective and I was not disappointed. It is a great community of girls with all levels of experience in the blogging world. Everyone was open to share by passing out cards, following each other on Instagram, and offering helpful tips to the newbies. Bloggers from all types of categories were there, including fashion, lifestyle, food, and photography. Since a migraine got me down earlier in the week, I wasn’t able to do a style post but these ladies more than deliver. Here is a round-up of a few of the girls I met & who I hope will become great blogger friends! Make sure you check each of them out!

I got the pleasure of sitting next to Ashley at the event. It was great to hear about her strategy on Instagram as well as learn about her growing jewelry business. Her jewelry is so cute and very on trend so check it out! I can’t wait to grab this necklace.

Natalie was a wealth of information and super sweet too! She delivers information on style deals and covers the best happy hours! Two things I certainly cannot live without. Follow Natalie for updates on Dallas drinks & fashion deals!

Jaclyn blogs over at Pretty Petals and her personality was just infectious! She is gorgeous and fun to be around. I gushed over her amazing lashes! She does the two mascara trick that I swear by. Jaclyn covers it all – fashion, beauty, decor, and food…all of which I hope to include on my blog someday. Glad I got to sit next to her & can’t wait to see what she has up her sleeve! Stay tuned!

Kristin is the blogger for Mollie and Maggie and it was by divine chance that we ended up as new bloggers at the same event. We know each other from our time in the retail world so it was great to see a familiar face! Kristin loves all things black & white which I’m definitely a fan of (Kate Spade anyone?) and has just started her blog! Go show her lots of love!

So glad I got to meet Amanda of The Miller Affect! We got to chatting and found out that we are practically neighbors. Amanda has great style and shares the best blogging tips. It’s great that she is sharing her tips and tools as she grows her blog. Hopefully we get to link up soon. Click to follow her ASAP!

Megan is a photographer + blogger who excels at both. I just love her blog design! She shoots some of the best bloggers in Dallas and her work shows why! I’d seen her work on blogs and Instagram so it was exciting to meet her in person. If you need a photographer, Meagan is your girl. She is also a great resource for photography + creative business tips, all featured on her blog.

These are just a few of the great girls at the event! There are so many more talented ladies to follow over at Dallas Blogger Collective.

You’ll notice the burger as the featured image…I felt it was my duty to have a burger on #NationalBurgerDay. My uncle over at Burger Junkies would be disappointed if I didn’t!
